It is a principle in gastronomcs that man
cannot eat quail a day for thirty days unless
he has very strong stomach. We think the
trouble lies in the occupation of the man who
does the eating. Let him chop wood for
several hours each day or work in a mine, and
We think he would have no difficulty in eat
ing anything set before him. At least, old
miners who have lived for several months ln

Paul, an enterprise of which Mr.. Walter s.
Morton, son of the late Senator o. p. Morton,
is one of the original projectors and present
proprietors. The town was located and laid out
nine months ago. In the original plat about $50
acres were reserved for manufactures, which
it was proposed to secure by donating alternate
lots. BY this means ten manufacturing estab-
ishments have been secured, representing an
aggregate investment of about S275.OOO Out
side of the manufactures about $335 900 has
been spent for the erection of residences, stores
churches, railroad stations and other buildings
making total of over 5000, 900 expended for
building. The North st. Paul Cottage Company
have spent $104, 900 in the erection of eighty
seven cottages. almost all of which are now oc-
cupied by the families of employees of the fac
tories and others. There are five churches. a
handsome brick school-house, and many fine
residences. These things show what can be
done by enterprise and well -directed effort, and

Senate was given five years after the speech
was made and must be taken as the latest ex-
preston of his opinion. If it be said that the
resolution was coupled with conditions that
made it distasteful to NJ Lamar, it must be
further said that the conditions were that
somethi ng should be done to make the
amendments effective, and they asserted the
power and the duty of the Nation to take
necessary action. The vote of Mr.. Lamar
indicated his opinion upon the essence of the
very questions that may come before him as
a member of the Supreme Court and it may
be asserted that the loyal people of the coun-
try have very decided views on those questions;
certainly, the Republicans of Indiana have,
and they are not backward about expressing
them, the milksop Republicans of the East
and the doughfaces of the North, generally,
to the contrary Notwithstanding. And it
may further be remarked that the recent con-
ference of Indiana Republicans are not caring
a cent whether their expressions please either
class. They spoke for themselves, and for the
vast and overwhelming numbers of Republic
ans throughout the country who are tired of
milksoppery and catnip-tea politics.

The unanimity of delegates on one point is
remarkable, namely, that protection does
protect They were all agreed that without it
wages would be materially reduced, and that
all wageworkers would suffer alike. These
views, coming from representative working
men from different parts of the country, are
doubtless fair average reflex of the views of
workingmen generally.
